It's a narrow viewpoint to only see it through the lens of death percentage.

Of course it is a game-changer.

You eradicate the viral load after 6 days instead of 20+. Meaning :

- reduced contagion (avoiding big peak of infections), no confinement needed, so the better for the economy - you avoid complications, meaning less load on hospital, so you can save a lot of people who would have died otherwise. - people get better in less time so less damage to their finances.
